[Edbrowse-dev] showscripts()

This is a function just for our debugging, rather like dumptree().
On www.nasa.gov, this is the output.

showscripts()

Hi Karl,

Got interested in trying your showscripts(), especially about your 
choices on how to nicely split javascript into better readable lines... 
I have tried this a few times in the past, and was interested in another 
persons idea on how to do that...

But ran into the problem that I can not compile eb,  in Windows... you 
have added a strcasestr() in http.c which does not exist in Windows 
system libraries...

I have started looking around, and so far it seems we will have to write 
our own substitute function in windows... should not be too hard... and 
see at least one example out there where this has been done...

But before I do this, thought I should check in with you... maybe you 
know of something... and alternative...

Concerning a Windows compression/decompression library I have seen, and 
used https://zlib.net, in several projects. The total source is less 
than 500K, and has always compiled well in Windows... and if setup in 
CMakeLists.txt can use the unix install, which always seems to be there...

But the first step is getting eb to compile in Windows... any help 
appreciated... thanks...

Regards, Geoff.

We wrote our own strstrCI() founction long ago for case independent strstr.
Latest push should solve your problem.

Well yeah but if it adds 100K to the binary and removes 100K in the compressed string then we've done a lot of work for no gain.
Guess I was thinking about a shared library / dll that was just always there, that we could use for free.
Honestly I'm probably not going to bother with this any further, not a high priority.
I reduced the footprint by 218K just by stripping the comments out of the js files, and that's pretty good.
I could remove another 12.5% 53K by realizing the string is all ascii. That wouldn't be too hard.

Hi Karl,

Ok, using strstrCI compiled fine in Windows... thanks...

Now if I could find the actual code that demin's the code...

I found html.c[543], that does if (demin) 
run_function_onearg(cf->winobj, "ed$demin", t->jv);, but still looking 
for the code...

I tried running -
$ edbrowse http://www.nasa.gov, and get -
15852
1839
lines 49 through 50 have been added

But then when I type showscipts(), I just get a ?

Likewise typing dumptree() gets me another ?

Obviously missing something here... sorry for being such a klutz... any 
help appreciated...

Regards,
Geoff.

I think these are js function, so you should type them after entering
'jdb' mode ; I haven't tried yet though.


That aside I'd like to say good work everyone, I haven't had much time
recently but it's good to see the list active !
I was also curious about the startup time from having huge functions
like that compiled at every window, but with eb$master it's probably
fine now. Good idea.

Hi Geoff
We're using two javascript libraries in rapid succession to demin. 
They're located in third.js and Karl's code then addresses them.
The first one is called esprima, and it turns javascript into an abstract 
syntax tree.  The second is called escodegen, which does the reverse, 
turns an abstract syntax tree into JS.  But it just so happens that 
escodegen demins what it converts!  So in a way we are using a 
sledgehammer to bonk a mosquito since it's a lot of code.  But it does 
amount to nice demin'ed javascript at the end of the day.  Thank you Karl!

Understood...

Well for windows zlib would still be a good choice... just add 
find_package( ZLIB ), like the present find_package( Tidy ), etc, in 
CMakeLists.txt, since at lease most Windows developers are very, VERY 
likely to have ZLIB installed, as it is needed for a **lot** of projects...

And already have to setup the PATH to include other DLL's, like CURL... 
to run eb...

But also understand this is not high priority... and actually 
compression would certainly add a lot of other wrinkles, that may not be 
worth the effort... and in Windows, a large EXE footprint, and 
allocating lots of memory is the norm, and Windows handles it well...

Just for information, the eb Windows Release EXE is 1.9 MB, the Debug is 
3 MB, plus 3.3 MB pdb, and 1.1 MB ilk files... and on loading the 
nasa.gov site, using the MSVC debugger, shows some 67 MB of process 
memory used, and takes about 3.5 minutes to load, using about 25% of the 
CPU power, like 1 core, before falling to 0, waiting for the next 
input... relatively quite a light-weight app compared to some I play 
with...

So do not see any concern about eb memory usage... in Windows at 
least... so shaving 50-100 K likewise does not seem worth the effort...

Regards, Geoff.

The showscripts command, for debugging, only shows the scripts produced by html.
This is a problem as more and more scripts are created dynamically.
Pass in 1, or true, showscripts(1), to see all scripts under document.
These are gathered by getElementsByTagName("script");
The resulting list is left in document.scripts2,
so if you want to know more about script 4, access document.scripts2[4].
You can see the difference on most sites, example nasa; the second list is longer than the first, and indexes need not correspond.
